<<Yes! Ignore any notion of a four-part location. It's an American thing
and
really only works for them.>>

Legacy does some neat things with locations, when it knows where the
country is located in the string. Anyone in any country can make use of
those sorting capabilities if they use a consistent method to put there
locations so that slot 4 is country and decreasing areas go in
decreasing slots. Unfortunately, other countries, and the US over time,
do not easily conform to those requirements. That leaves lots of room
for whatever style you wish to use. You can put as much detail as any
address has, in any order you wish to use.

I am satisfied with the sorting ability, and have used it. I also put in
locations that I know will not be needed to sort in any way that is
convenient for me. And I thank the programmers for considering the
additional capabilities they have put in the location. It is that
innovation that makes Legacy such a great program. It is just too bad
that coming up with the same system for the rest of the world is not
that easy.
